Sea Harrier FRS Mk1 in 1/72 from Hasegawa 00235

The Hasegawa 1/72 B5 Sea Harrier FRS Mk1 captures the distinctive silhouette of the Royal Navy's jump jet. The kit includes finely sprued PS components that let hobbyists assemble an authentic small-scale representation of the type.

Operational background

Known for its VTOL capability, the Sea Harrier FRS Mk1 made a notable contribution to naval operations in the 1980s. Its combat role and compact form make it an engaging subject for enthusiasts focused on military aviation history.

Assembly notes for modellers

Expect well-defined moulding and cockpit detail that benefit from careful painting and seam cleanup. The kit is geared toward builders who are comfortable with fine work, precise masking and weathering techniques to bring out panel lines.

Showcasing the finished build

At 1/72 scale this Sea Harrier presents nicely on a small plinth or within a carrier deck diorama. Detail painting and decals will elevate the overall impact and reflect the aircraft's operational look.
